Having filled available places on its first run, Anglia Ruskin University’s new 
course to help charities and social enterprises respond to current challenges will
run again in September.

Thirty two students began studying the Certificate of Higher Education in Charity
and Social Enterprise Management in Cambridge at the end of March, including professionals
from the British Red Cross, Suffolk and Essex County Councils, Mid-Norfolk Mencap
and the WRVS.

The course runs for two years, with eight workshops a year on campus and the rest
delivered via the Virtual Learning Environment. Students undertake a series of assignments
and presentations for the purposes of assessment, all designed with a strong practical
focus so that they can apply what they learn to their own organisations. The course
is being run by 3rd Sector Futures, a specialist unit within Anglia Ruskin’s Ashcroft
International Business School, in conjunction with Higher Skills@Work. The course
combines work-based study and reflection with taught sessions on campus.

Jan Coatham, Senior Service Manager at the British Red Cross, said: “Knowledge gained
from this course will enable the British Red Cross to generate their own funding
through social enterprises, meaning we can take on projects that wouldn’t normally
attract funds.”

The September course will be run in Chelmsford.
